Defendant, aged 38, now held in police detention
On Monday afternoon in Nidderau, southeastern Hesse, a shocking incident unfolded. A 38-year-old man, hailing from Bad Hersfeld, allegedly threw homemade incendiary devices into various locations, causing a stir in the community.
According to the Hanau Public Prosecutor's Office and the police, the suspect first targeted a single-family home, where a five-member family was residing. The man allegedly hurled an incendiary device into the house, causing a fire. Remarkably, despite the smoke inhalation, the family members did not suffer any burn injuries. The five family members, aged 4 to 44, were taken to the hospital for examination due to possible smoke inhalation.
The fire department was able to quickly extinguish the flames, preventing further damage. However, another vehicle parked near the home was not so fortunate. The suspect allegedly threw a homemade incendiary device into a parked car's rear window, causing minor damage.
The police arrived at the scene promptly and arrested the 38-year-old suspect on the spot. The accused is currently in custody and is charged with both attempted arson and attempted manslaughter.
The motive for the crime is under investigation, with previous family disputes being suspected. The investigations into the incident are being conducted by the Public Prosecutor's Office and the police.
No new or specific details about this case can be provided at the moment, as the search results mainly discuss unrelated topics such as historical World War II events, U.S. anti-BDS legislation, and academic integrity policies at Otero College.
